Earl Grey Nez Zen

I purchased the fragrance with Deep in a Dream and Niwa locally in Belgium and had a relatively long chat with the perfumer Romain Pantoustier. He said that he would not use any artificial ingredients except those of animal origin, although some of them are still available (in their natural form). And I believe him 100%, because all his fragrances are almost photorealistic, as if you had all the ingredients in front of you. Even after an hour of smelling, I didn't feel the hint of a headache here, where in the normal perfumery I always have to stop after 20-30 minutes. In addition, he revealed to me that the fragrance oil concentration is around 28%, with which his perfumes have "Extrait de Parfum" or "Parfum" - concentration

Earl Grey really smells like a great Earl Grey tea like you get in tea shops, without tea listed in the ingredients. The shelf life is very good for a fragrance of this type. All of the ingredients are individually very recognizable. Basically a relatively simple and extremely pleasing fragrance, which is nevertheless deeper than the title suggests. A safe-bet, with which one warscheinlich with nobody aneckt. Here, everything is simply round.

I personally have lived in Japan and visited the country countless times. Romain was also often in Japan and apparently draws much inspiration from his experiences there. This is already easy to see in the logo - just search for "Zen". I think that not only his creation "Niwa" (Japanese: garden), but also this very fragrance was inspired by Japan - at least that is my personal impression. In Japan you don't really wear fragrances (at least during the day) because you don't want to attract negative attention. I am with but sure that one would come through with this fragrance but still because this simply does not smell like "perfume" in the sense of Davidoff Cool Water, etc., but simply acts like a composition of natural ingredients.

The fragrance is basically very simple, but so perfectly tuned that this fragrance has absolutely a right to exist and may also like to appear more often. So in the form of an absolute unicum from ingredients which everyone has already smelled once.
TLDR: Super natural, acts at first smell extremely simple, but is relatively deep. The beauty is in the details. Photorealistic Scent. Citrus very aromatic and somewhat sweet, rose very gentle. Like a tea which is pulled at exactly the right temperature and is pulled to the second. In addition, really very good durability
